Twenty-two year-old St Joseph resident Tramaine Jevon Parris appeared in the dock with two other young men from the same parish before later facing two charges with his mother, in the same court.

The trio further pleaded guilty to damaging a car belonging to Dario Clarke on that same date. They will return to court on March 30 on these matters.

The accused will also be appearing at the District “F” Magistrates’ Court on Friday in relation to other charges.

The Parris mother and son were further granted $1,000 bail in relation to the drug charges.
